Circulation of highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) viruses poses a continuous threat to animal and public health. After the 2005–2006 H5N1 2014–2015 H5N8 epidemics, another is currently affecting Europe. Up August 2017, 1,112 outbreaks in domestic 955 wild birds 30 European countries have been reported, largest epidemic by HPAI virus continent. Here, main epidemiological findings are described. While some similarities with previous epidemics were observed, for example pattern emergence,...
Highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs) cause severe systemic disease and high mortality rates in chickens, leading to a huge economic impact the poultry sector. However, some chickens are resistant disease. This study aimed at evaluating mechanisms behind HPAIV resistance. Chickens of different breeds were challenged with H7N1 or clade 2.3.4.4b H5N8 HPAIV, euthanized 3 days post-inoculation (dpi), classified as susceptible depending on following criteria: that presented i)...
Abstract Chickens are highly susceptible to pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIVs). However, the severity of infection varies depending viral strain and genetic background host. In this study, we evaluated pathogenesis two HPAIVs (H7N1 H5N8) assessed susceptibility local commercial chicken breeds from Spain. Eight were intranasally inoculated with 10 5 ELD 50 A/Chicken/Italy/5093/1999 (H7N1) or A/Goose/Spain/IA17CR02699/2017 (H5N8 clade 2.3.4.4. B) monitored during days. both HPAIVs,...
The Potosino-Zacatecano Plateau (PZP) is characterized by a system of hills surrounded ridges where the bobcat only wild felid; however, there no information on basic ecology this species in region. objective work was to determine diet and abundance Cerro del Peñón Blanco, San Luis Potosí. inferred from analysis prey remains feces; addition, minimum number bobcats study area estimated camera traps placed Diet composition expressed as percentage occurrence. Individual were identified...
Avian influenza (AI) is one of the most important viral diseases in poultry, wildlife and humans. Available data indicate that pigeons play a minimum role epidemiology AI. However, degree variation exists susceptibility to highly pathogenic AI viruses (HPAIVs), especially since emergence goose/Guangdong H5 lineage. Here, pathogenesis H5N8 HPAIV comparison with H7N1 these were evaluated. Local urban (Columba livia var. domestica) intranasally inoculated 105 ELD50...
Prior to the emergence of Asian-origin H5 Goose/Guangdong/1/96 (Gs/GD) lineage, highly pathogenic avian influenza viruses (HPAIV) had rarely caused high mortalities in domestic geese. In 2016/2017 European epidemics, H5N8 Gs/GD clade 2.3.4.4 Group B produced an unprecedented number outbreaks waterfowl holdings. this study, pathogenesis HPAIV comparison with H7N1 HPAIV, and role geese epidemiology these viruses, were evaluated. Local commercial (Anser anser var. domesticus) intranasally...
